Revenge Sevenfold

Nian Zhen reached out with a gentle hand and slowly rubbed the old lady\'s back.

Seeing her kind gesture, Mrs. Lu relaxed.

"Nian Zhen, I really do think Lu Shen is in love with you. You\'ve been friends for so long, how could he not realize what kind of a gem you are? If you tell him you don\'t want him to marry that kind of girl, surely he will change his mind..."

Lu Shen, who had been standing at the doorway listening quietly to their conversation, felt like it was time to interrupt.

"I\'m back."

Lu Yongzheng had a smile on his face as soon as he saw his son. "Finally, you\'re here! Just where did you go that was so important?"

"Business." Lu Shen was not completely lying, he had followed Hui Yin to make her his secretary.

"You\'re always working!" Mrs. Lu complained.

However, she could not really get mad at this outstanding son of hers. She was always as proud as a lion whenever she talked about Lu Shen to her friends. Ha! Who could compare to her son, who practically built an empire from nothing?

"You\'re still here?"

This question was directed at Nian Zhen by Lu Shen, who had been staring at him since he came back. Caught by his gaze, she could only tuck her head in timidly and blush.

"I wanted to see you more," she whispered.

"Aiya!" Seeing the two youngsters flirting with each other, Mrs. Lu was overjoyed. She poked at her husband, subtly telling him that they should probably get out of their way.

But Lu Yongzheng did not get it.

"What?" he grumbled at his wife, annoyed.

Mrs. Lu felt like her head was hurting. How could she marry someone with such a low EQ?

Lu Shen did not pay attention to them and only picked up Nian Zhen\'s luggage.

"You should go home and sleep."

Nian Zhen did not want to go. "I\'m not tired..."

"That\'s right, that\'s right!" Mrs. Lu was instantly worried. "You only came back this morning. You should sleep to get rid of the jet lag."

Nian Zhen pouted. "Brother Shen, I want to talk to you more. I\'ve missed you so much. Didn\'t you miss me too?"

"Of course he missed you!" Mrs. Lu didn\'t give his son a chance to reply. "Lu Shen is just worried about your health. I\'ve already forgotten you just returned from abroad, but he didn\'t because he\'s concerned about you."

Even though it did not come straight from Lu Shen\'s mouth, Mrs. Lu\'s sugarcoated words made Nian Zhen extremely happy.

"In that case, I\'ll go home and rest then!"

Lu Shen picked up Nian Zhen\'s luggage and carried it outside, handing it to driver Cheng who put it inside the trunk.

When she slid into the car and the expressionless man standing outside did not follow, Nian Zhen\'s forehead creased.

"You\'re not coming?"

"Cheng will drive you home."

After saying that, Lu Shen turned around and went back inside the old house.

As the car left the driveway, Nian Zhen twisted around to look at Lu Shen\'s retreating back. She could not understand why he was being cold to her.

Suddenly, she recalled the face of the girl that he had called as his fiancée. Nian Zhen gnashed her teeth so hard in hatred that she almost broke them.

Was Lu Shen being like this because of that girl?

As expected, she had to remove that trash from his sight!
